Apr 8, 2024Withering Rooms blends elements from classic survival horror games like Clock Tower and modern roguelikes, offering a tense experience where death resets progress but rearranges the mansion's rooms, providing a fresh challenge each time. Despite technical limitations and lack of Spanish text, its mix of combat, puzzles, and atmosphere delivers a compelling horror adventure.

Apr 15, 2024In the end, Withering Rooms’ somewhat clunky and graceless combat is not enough to seriously detract from what it does well. Withering Rooms looks unlike any recent game in the genre. Its setting is haunting and haunted and its blend of roguelike, puzzle, and action mechanics guarantees variety. It’s a compelling choice for fans of action games with more than a dash of horror.

Apr 16, 2024You can always depend on the indie game scene to try new things, and Withering Rooms is no exception. A thoughtful implementation of the rogue-like formula into a horror scenario makes for a great combination. Combat offers an up-and-down experience that leaves an imbalance between magic and melee, especially since melee leaves you suffering cheap shots from time to time. Despite the snags along the way, Withering Rooms adds its own ideas into the genre, making this a must-buy for any fan of the spooky stuff.
